Reimbursement Policy Update - Claims requiring additional documentation (Facility)

As we advised you in the April issue of the Network Update, in our efforts to improve payment accuracy and reduce post-payment recoveries, beginning with dates of service on or after July 13, 2018, Anthem updated our Claims Requiring Additional Documentation policy to include the following requirement:

• Inpatient stay claims reimbursed at a percent of charge with billed charges above $40,000 require an itemized bill to be submitted with the claim.

For more information about this policy, visit the facility reimbursement policy page at anthem.com provider website.

 

In addition, visit our anthem.com provider website to view the instructions on how to submit your itemized bill to Anthem.
